Alternative Title	Sketch by Cham: Territory Violation
Creator (LCNAF)	Cham (Artist)
Date	1870s
Description	This is a political caricature related to the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 or the Paris Commune of 1871. Within illus.: Saxony Border. Mabille(?). From the newspaper Le Charivari. Caption: "Violation de Territoire. -Un peu plus et nous y sommes.// -Je vous en supplie, canonniers! donnez-moi le temps d'écrire a mon agent de change.// -Va monter ta garde, mais ne prend pas de fusil. Ce sera une façon de protester contre les armemens de l'Europe.// -Je vais dire à mon agent de change de ne pas vendre. C'est bien mauvais signe quand les militaires se coiffent comme ça!// -Saperlote! Françoise, ne cognez donc pas les portes comme ça! On va croire que c'est le canon. Vous ferez baisser la bourse.// Peignant le siècle de Charlemagne dans l'hôtel des Invalides, M. Benedict Masson se ressent de son entourage.// Les ambassadeurs chinois ayant peur de se perdre dans les rues de Paris.// Les ambassadeurs chinois se laissant embobiner par ces dames.// -Mais marchez donc! -Merci! Je n'ai pas envie de me fatiguer, je ménage mes forces pour faire le coup de poing dans l'enceinte du pesage.// Nouvelle tenue pour jockey dans l'enceinte du pesage.// -Mais allez donc! Qu'est-ce que ça fait que vous vous cassiez le cou. J'ai parié une bouteille, vous allez me la faire perdre.// Les parieurs montant désormais avec le jockey pour veiller à ce qu'il courre convenablement." Caption (English translation): "Violation of territory. -A little more and we will be there.// -I beg you, gunners! Give me the time to write to my stockbroker.// Go stand your guard, but don't take a rifle/gun. It will be a way of protesting against the armaments of Europe.// Oh my! Françoise, don’t bang/slam the doors like that! We’ll think it’s the cannon/gun. You will make the Stock Exchange prices fall/drop.// Painting the age of Charlemagne in the Hotel des Invalides, Mr. Benedict Masson feels the effect of his entourage.// The Chinese ambassadors are afraid of getting lost in the streets of Paris.// The Chinese ambassadors let themselves be hoodwinked by the ladies.// -But go on, will you! -Thank you! I did not want to get tired, I saved my strength to punch in the weigh-in enclosure/racetrack.// New outfit for jockeys inside the weigh-in.// So go on! What is it, did you break your neck. I bet a bottle, you're going to make me lose it.// The bettors now ride with the jockey to ensure that he runs properly."
